Values

The research emphasises how sustainability-oriented values in founders drive Sustainable Business Model Innovation (SBMI), say sources from IIM Lucknow.

For example, founders of sustainable startups frequently engage with partners who may initially lack a sustainability focus, inspiring them to adopt greener practices.

This ripple effect fosters a larger ecosystem of sustainable businesses, redefining success to include positive contributions to environmental and social well-being alongside profitability.

The research centers on “Suscom,” a startup renowned for its sustainable practices. By delving deeply into Suscom’s operations, the study revealed that the founders’ values permeate every facet of the business—from product innovation to strategic partnerships.
